‘Little Lightning’ strikes

Yesterday’s Amway Cup final match was a nail-biter, with Yu Ram Cha of Korea facing off against Taiwan’s Shu-Han Chang. In the end, Yu Ram Cha came from behind - way behind - to take home the 2010 Women’s 9-ball World Championship trophy.

Yu Ram’s nickname on the Women’s Professional Billards Association Tour is “Little Lightning”, and she says a “killer instinct” is her advantage when playing the game.  In 2008, at age 21, she was named Billiards Digest’s ‘Breakthrough Player of the Year.’  At 22, she has placed as high as fifth in women’s world rankings.  

It’s quite the list of accomplishments for this petite professional, and we hope to see her back next year - Amway’s fourteenth of sponsoring this stunning competition.
